couldn’t resist taking this door again when I saw it. loved it the first time I saw it some time back.
Pouring rain here today, glad we got out for a drive Monday in sunshine. We ate at a restaurant that is on the water’s edge, I like the food there, and love watching the rushing water while I enjoy a companionable visit with a friend and feed the taste buds. I have never seen this kind of door anywhere else but at this restaurant. The other doors were found along the side streets on our way into the little town.
Have a great day everyone. I am feeling a bit like the doors today .. been around awhile, still function, but tired and a shade worn. LOL its called “character”
Be in tune with the feeling of others. Let’s start by trying to understand other peoples’ feelings.

where two energies meet up
We live in a society that obsesses over physical appearance and fitness. This is a good reason, why it is essential to find a way to appreciate and love .. the “me” in all of us.. let’s practice body love and appreciation today.
Ever have a day where it is so busy, you literally miss it, Yes … you lived it … yes it was fun … yes it was positive… but at night as you prepare to lie still .. it comes to you…. you were so busy, you missed it.
During the winter, when the birds find water they can have fun in.. they have a splash. The Cooper’s Hawk Dan Cadieux https://www.instagram.com/dancadphotography/ found one day wandering in a stream, he apparently stayed to wade for a good hour giving Dan plenty of time to get a few good pictures in.
These wonderful pictures I get to share with you, is due to the amazing patience and dedication the photographers I work with give to their craft. I so appreciate them and their generosity in sharing with us.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Let’s live with gratitude towards everyone and everything all day today.

Today in Perfect Liberty is Thanksgiving/appreciation day. As always there will be a service for special prayers. If you are unable to attend, please spend a few minutes in prayer giving thanks for the blessings we receive.
Here is a small thought to tuck away, and meditate on … it is important to remember. anxious feelings happen to all of us from time to time… it is the wise person who listens and learns from them...
You are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.

There are times when circumstances give us momentary moments of angst. It happens, but always, always there IS a solution.
It is interesting because it is difficult. In order to overcome difficulties in your life, you need to think hard and be creative. That is why life is always interesting,
You are the result of your daily efforts. Put your whole heart into everything you do in your daily life. Your true self will shine through.

I actually took a long walk around the bog the other day. It was quiet, the sky was a clear blue, not a cloud in sight. I took my time, treating myself to my own thoughts. Letting my mantra slip in and out, a gentle whisper .. I repeated it.. quietly, letting the sounds carry through the crisp morning air. I encourage others to meditate, make time for themselves.. and I am guilty of not always doing so myself.
Today at a concert, the performer was having a difficult time getting his equipment to function as it should.. sensing his frustration, without saying anything out loud or to anyone, I focused on him and said a silent prayer… He told me later, that he thought he would have to cancel, he’d been trying everything, and then .. bingo.. 2 minutes before air time, he was connected and everything fell into place. (nope never said a word to him… but I know prayer helped..)
I do believe in the power of prayer and positive thinking. I do believe that we are composed of an energy field that wraps itself around us, how we think, feel and act.. affects this energy field. I’ll go even further to say, that music .. which to me, is also “energy” can be a positive influence in our lives.
The bench you see above is at one of the conservation areas I go to. I pass it often. seldom do I take advantage of it.. I prefer instead to walk a little further and sit on one that is further in the woods and often secluded and shielded from the other visitors to the centre.
Are you making time for yourself.? . Are you smiling from within… does the smile on your face, reach and radiate from your eyes?
I have always (ok almost always) listened to music with words.. Dave has been introducing me to instrumentals. This is one he wrote for his Dead Drop recordings.
This barn is being preserved, but all around it has been torn down, fields are ripped up, a new development is going on. sigh..
Driving around upper New York State. There was such a variety of buildings ..from run down to redone.. and of course… a “state” building.
Remember the door knob yesterday.. this is what it was hiding. Now you know why I wear good hiking boots and protective clothing when I explore. Always very careful when entering abandoned buildings
Experience the joy of change. It is truly amazing when you look back at yourself this year, or today compared to yesterday and realize how much you have improved and changed.
Start today with a fresh outlook. Even though people and situations may look the same, they are constantly changing. Start each day with a fresh mind.
